Special effects: Saving the world starting from becoming a Zergling

"They still caught up."

Yaguruma sighed softly, turned around with Kageyama, and looked at Mishima, who was standing at the front.

"Does ZECT have no one else available? Every time they send someone, it's always this annoying fly."

"Flies...hehehe."

Upon hearing the insulting word "yaguruma," Mishima merely gave a cold laugh.

He's become immune to those kinds of words after being cursed by these Kamen Riders so many times.

"Are you rushing here to die again?"

Kageyama, however, was not so good-tempered, he retorted sarcastically.

After all, in a sense, Masato Mishima was the one who caused him to end up in this situation!

"You really don't know how to be grateful, Captain Kageyama!"

"Don't forget, I was the one who promoted you back then."

"You've become a complete ingrate! You're helping outsiders attack your own master!"

Mishima swiftly retaliated against Kageyama's sarcasm.

"you!"

The child clearly lacked self-control; after Mishima touched a nerve, he became furious and almost jumped up in frustration.

In reality, Mishima could indeed be considered Kageyama's benefactor.

"Kageyama, who has the approval of the Royal Bees, can be promoted to captain without your so-called promotion. Don't try to act so noble."

"All those scheming things you did behind my back have long since paid back the favors you did for me."

"Besides, I'm not going to discuss these boring things with you today."

Yaguruma remained expressionless as he pulled back Kageyama, who was about to jump up and punch Mishima.

He coldly retaliated on behalf of the child, then pulled out his kicking stick.

"I went easy on them the last few times because of my former employer."

"We have important things to do today, so we don't have time to waste with your nonsense."

"henshin!"

After the two figures completed their transformations, they rushed towards Mishima.

Seeing the locusts and bees rushing towards him, Mishima adjusted his glasses, showing no panic.

"Get them!"

He waved to the ant soldiers behind him, while he stood there with great interest, beginning to enjoy the battle.

Following Mishima's orders, the ant soldiers swarmed quickly toward the locusts and the queen bees.

Faced with these low-level ant soldiers, the royal wasps and locusts slowed their charge, not wanting to harm them.

The two withdrew their strength, preparing to jump over the horde of suicidal ant soldiers and grab Mishima directly.

Unexpectedly, several soft whips suddenly burst out from the ant soldiers below, entangled the two people who were unable to gain any leverage in mid-air!

"What?!"

"Insectoids!!!"

To the astonishment of the two, the ant soldiers below quickly tore off their disguises, transforming into alien insects and glaring menacingly at the two in mid-air.

"Mishima, how dare you collude with the Zerg! You have violated ZECT's first commandment!"

Kicking locusts and spitting angrily at Mishima, this person completely violated ZECT's beliefs and original intentions.

When confronted with the locust's question, Mishima burst into laughter: "I don't care about any regulations, I just want to keep climbing!"

"Whether it's alien insects or protozoa, they're all just tools for me to climb up."

"I'm willing to use any means necessary to get me into a high position."

"I've had enough of all you self-righteous types."

"Without the Knight System, you are nothing."

After pouring out his heart, Mishima felt a great sense of relief.

"Kill them!"

Then, he immediately gave the order for the Zerg to kill the two brothers.

Under Mishima's command, the violin-type Zerg's whip suddenly tightened, the powerful force causing sparks to fly from the armor on the two men's bodies.

"I was careless and didn't flash."

Yaguruma struggled to look down at Mishima, who stood there with a cold expression, and felt a pang of regret.

He shouldn't have argued with this lunatic; he should have just gone up and attacked him!

However, it's too late to say anything now; he should be thinking about how to get out of this predicament.

Thinking of the characteristics of the Locust Armor, Yagura gritted his teeth and forcibly activated his ultimate move!

"Rider Jump!"

A surge of electricity flashed from the booster between his left and right legs, and Kicking Locust used his left foot to step on his right foot for leverage.

The immense impact exploded from his right foot, causing the kicking locust to rise several inches into the air and forcefully sever the long whip that bound him.

During his descent, he kicked the whip that was binding the royal bee, freeing it.

This stroke of genius caught Mishima somewhat off guard.

Seeing the two people who had landed and were heading straight for him, he quickly shouted to the alien insects.

"Come protect me!"

Hearing Mishima's cry for help, the two molting insects hiding in the green skin immediately accelerated, instantly passing over the Locust and the Royal Bee, and stood in front of Mishima, shielding him behind them.

Finally, under the watchful eyes of the Zerg, the two ran past Mishima and disappeared outside the bridge arch.

"..."

Mishima remained silent as he watched the two figures disappear into the distance.

"Aren't you Kamen Riders?! Kamen Riders, how can you run away without a fight?!"

After an awkward moment, Mishima flew into a rage, jumping up and down and yelling at the path the two had already disappeared down.

But he quickly took two deep breaths and composed himself.

"Chase them! They can't have gone far!"

He spoke to the alien insects behind him.

The alien insects, which had previously revealed their true forms, transformed back into a swarm of ant soldiers and silently followed Mishima away.

In the dark alley

"Well......"

Yaguruma slumped to the ground, and Kageyama squatted beside him with a worried expression, staring at his bleeding foot, unsure of what to do.

Although the two managed to escape thanks to Yagura's quick thinking, their injuries were real.

"Go find the Way of Heaven."

Yagura dragged his injured foot and slowly got up.

Kageyama quickly grabbed his arm and helped Yagura up.

His actions just now were tantamount to using a fatal blow on his own body.

After the power was unleashed, if it weren't for the armor blocking it and the fact that he was airborne and the force was reduced, his foot might have exploded.

"Big brother...it's all my fault."

Kageyama lowered his head, looking somewhat guilty.

He felt that the accident happened because he had stayed there for too long.

"What nonsense are you talking about? It was expected that Mishima would come knocking on my door."

"I just didn't expect them to be so quick this time."

The corn chariot grimaced in pain, which severely slowed their progress.

"Kageyama, put me down. We must tell Tendou and the others about this so they can prepare for the worst."

After walking for a while, Yagura couldn't help but say something.

At this speed, neither of them will escape.

With the help of the Zerg, Mishima will surely be able to discover their whereabouts quickly.

But if Kageyama leaves at this time, he can still survive.

Kageyama kept his head down and didn't say anything, just kept pulling Yagura forward.

"Kageyama!"

Yaguruma raised his voice and called out to Kageyama again.

Knowing that Yaguruma was somewhat angry, Kageyama remained silent.

"Why are you being so stubborn at a time like this!"

Enraged, Yaguruma broke free from Kageyama's grasp and fell to the ground with a thud.

Kageyama remained silent, but went to help Yagura again.

For him, Yache was his family and everything.

He would never be like his parents, easily giving up on important people!

A dark figure moved about outside the alley, and footsteps gradually approached.

Yaguruma looked at the stubborn Kageyama and reluctantly put his arm around Kageyama's.

Since Kageyama has made this decision, he will go along with him and fight one more time!
